MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS
Indian economy review
The Indian economy grew 6.9% in 2011-12 compared with 8.4% in 2010-11 primarily due to weak growth in its industrial sector (3.6% compared with 6.8% in 2010-11), which was influenced by an economic crisis in the United States and the European Union, inflation, interest rate increase, depreciating rupee and rising fuel prices.
Agricultural sector
India’s agricultural sector sustains 58% of the country’s population. The sector grew 2.5% in 2011-12 whereas the government targets to achieve average agricultural growth of 4.2% during the 12th Five-Year Plan (2012-17). This gap is required to be plugged through enhanced farm yield arising from an enhanced use of fertilizers and micro-irrigation facilities. The country’s food grain yield increased from 1,734 kg/ha in 2001-02 to 1,996 kg/ha in 2011-12 even though it is well below the global average of about 3,000 kg/ha. India’s investment in the agriculture and allied sector as a percentage of GDP increased from 13.5% in 2004-05 to 20.1% in 2010-11, even as its contribution to GDP declined from 16.8% in 2007-08 to 13.9% in 2011-12.
Fertilizer sector
The size of India’s fertilizer industry is estimated at Rs.1300000.000 Millions based on the ratio of sales to subsidy of 1:1 and the estimation of subsidy for FY 2010-11. India has 141 fertilizer plants (29 manufacturing urea, 19 DAP and NP/NPK complex, 82 single super phosphate, 10 ammonium sulphate and one calcium ammonium nitrate). Fertilizers improve crop productivity by 40%. The non-plan subsidy to the fertilizer sector alone accounted for Rs.609740.000 Millions, making it imperative to grow domestic fertilizer capacity as imports are costlier than domestic production. Urea accounts for 75% of the nitrogenous fertilizer with a production capacity of 22 million tonnes against a demand of 28 million tonnes. The per hectare fertilizer consumption (kiliogram per hectare of arable land) in India is 142.3 kg/ha compared with 331 kg/ha in China and 524 kg/ha in Israel. India’s fertilizer consumption grew from less than 1 kg/ha in 1951-52 to the current level.
Urea is a controlled commodity under Administrative Price Mechanism and subject to distribution control by the government. The government imports about 6 million tonnes of urea to meet the supply-demand gap. As there is no major competition in the Urea sector, the government brought the P and K sector under the Nutrient Based Subsidy Scheme. This sector is exposed to competition with regard to pricing, sales, procurement, among others. The Company also imports and trades P and K fertilizers while competing with other fertilizer companies in this segment. The key demand drivers of the country’s fertilizer sector comprise the following:
a. Availability of feedstock: The principal input in manufacturing urea is natural gas. Natural gas as feedstock/raw material, accounting for 81% of the country’s urea capacity, which is supplied as per government allocation while the rest is addressed through imported LNG. India’s empowered Group of Ministers (EGOM) prioritized the allocation of natural gas to the country’s fertilizer and power sector. The entire existing available natural gas and KG basin RIL gas has been fully allocated to existing plants based on the policy. One of the reasons for new capacities not being created is due to the non-availability of natural gas.
b. Agro-climatic conditions: The offtake of fertilizers is based on agro-climatic conditions like the timeliness and quantum of rains.
c. Seasonality: Fertilizer consumption peaks during June-August during the kharif season and December-February during the rabi season. Even as fertilizer consumption peaks for six months whereas fertilizer production needs to be continuous, the business requires a warehousing facility during non-peak seasons.
Production: The domestic fertilizer production in India reached 34.6 million tones in 2011-12 of which urea production accounted for 21.8 million tonnes, DAP 3.6 million tonnes and NPK 9.2 million tonnes.
Demand: India’s fertilizer demand during 2011-12 was around 58.69 million tonnes (urea demand 30.51 million tonnes, DAP 12.61 million tonne and complex nutrients 10.73 million tonnes).
Imports: India’s urea segment is under-serviced, with the country importing 6 million tonnes to meet growing demand. This costs the exchequer USD 410-440per tonne, resulting in hefty cross-subsidisation.
Outlook: Fertilizer production globally is likely to grow 9% and reach 37.6 million tonnes in 2012-13 (urea production 23.3 million tonnes, DAP 4.3 million tone and NPK 10 million tonnes). Fertilizer demand in India is likely to be 61.27 million tonnes (urea demand 32 million tonnes, DAP 13.24 million tonne and complex nutrients 11.25 million tonnes).
Micro-irrigation
sector
Though the information on the actual market size of the industry is not authentic due to the unorganized industry, it is estimated that the industry size is around Rs.20000.000 Millions (drip contributes around 70% share and sprinkler 30% share) with annual growth of about 15 to 20%. Fresh water is scarce in India and only 38% of the cultivable land is irrigated. The share of water for the agricultural sector is expected to decline from 85% in 2010 to 71% in 2050. The demand for water in India’s agriculture sector is estimated to increase even as the share of water for agriculture is expected to decline from 85% to 71% by 2050, which makes microirrigation critical to the country’s food security. There are about 196 micro irrigation players in India with Nagarjuna commanding a market share of around 9%. It is among the few companies in India with a product range covering the fertilizer range complemented by drips, sprinklers and PVC pipes. Micro-irrigation is a huge opportunity leading to water savings of around 40-80%, energy savings of 30-35%, yield improvement of 50-100%, fertilizer saving of 30% and labour cost saving of 15-20%. India targets about 3.5 mn ha of land under microirrigation by 2016. The global drip irrigation systems market is expected to grow with depleting water resources at a CAGR of 19% to USD 96.7 million by 2016; the global sprinkler irrigation system market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.4% to USD 2,418 million by 2016.

Basin D-6 Block, NFCL had initiated Revamp / De-bottlenecking schemes
stage-wise in the year 2006 in order to increase the Capacity, reduce Pollution
and improvement in Energy and Reliability. Accordingly, in Revamp Phase-I,
which mainly consisted of Installation of S-300 Ammonia Converter, replacement
of Synloop Water Cooler, replacement of Air Pre-heater, replacement of HRSG-C
economizer, etc., were implemented in the year 2007-08 with an investment of
Rs. 550.000 Millions and has resulted in Production increase of 50,000 MT per
Annum from Unit-I.
Revamp Phase-II was initiated in the year 2007, mainly to convert
Unit-II fully operational on Natural Gas and to implement de-bottlenecking
measures in order to augment the capacity and to reduce emissions. Accordingly,
CDR Plant was installed and commissioned during Mar 2009. The CDR Plant
recovers Carbon Di-Oxide from Reformer flue gas and there by reduces the
emissions. Revamp of both the plants were also taken up and schemes have been
commissioned on 23rd September 2009 in Unit-I and on 28th September 2009 in
Unit-II. With the measures taken up in Revamp Phase I and Phase-II, the
production capacity has increased to 15.66 Lakh MTPA from 11.95 Lakh MTPA. The
investment for Revamp Phase-II was approx. Rs. 2000.000 Millions.
Apart from de-bottlenecking for capacity enhancement, due thrust has
been given for reduction of specific energy consumption and also enhancement of
reliability of the existing equipment. The energy consumption shall be reduced
from 5.66 Gcal / MT of Urea to 5.50 Gcal / MT of Urea.“Serving Society through
Industry” was the mission of NFCL founder Shri K V K Raju. On the same lines, NFCL taken up these
measures, which will help in making more Urea available to the Farming
community, besides bringing down the subsidy burden to the Govt. of India and
also substantially reducing the Imports of Urea by the Country. The measures taken up for recovery of 450
MTPD of CO2 from flue gases and reduction of energy shall also qualify as
‘Clean Development Mechanism’ projects.

NAGARJUNA
FERTILIZERS AND CHEMICALS LIMITED MOVES TOWARDS CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM BY
COMMISSIOINING CARBON DIOXIDE RECOVERY (CDR) PLANT AT KAKINADA
Sri K S Raju, Chairman and Managing Director of the Company declared the
Commissioning of Carbon Dioxide Recovery (CDR) Plant of 450 Metric Tonnes Per
Day capacity for commercial use in the existing Urea Production facilities.
This glittering Inauguration ceremony was graced by the Senior Officials of M/s
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI), Mitsubishi Corporation (MC), Tecnimont ICB
(TICB) and other Senior Executives of the Company and the Government Officials
in the NFCL Plant premises. A Pooja ceremony was performed prior the
Inauguration.
The Order for CDR Plant was placed on MHI, Japan and M/s Tecnimont ICB
(TICB), Mumbai on Lump Sum Turnkey Basis. The scope of MHI was for Basic Know
how and Licensing, while TICB’s scope was for EPC.
NFCL has two Units for the manufacture of Urea Fertilizer with a
capacity of 6 Lakhs MT per Annum each. Unit-I is operated on Natural Gas while Unit-II
is being operated mainly on Naphtha because of the short supply of Natural Gas
from existing sources of GAIL. Anticipating additional Natural Gas from RIL
from the KG Basin reserves, the Order of CDR Plant was placed in July 2007 with
a completion schedule of 22 Months that is by May, 2009. The Project could be
completed 2 Months in advance due to the intensive efforts of TICB, MHI and
NFCL. With Commissioning of this CDR Plant, NFCL shall be recovering 450 MTPD
of CO2 from the fluegas stack, thus helping the company to be eligible for
Carbon Credits through Clean Development Mechanism.
The company in order to maintain sufficient proportion of CO2 during the
manufacture of Urea and Ammonia consequent to the changeover of feed stack from
naphtha to natural gas has undertaken the installation of the CDR Plant. In
fact CDR Plant forms part of Revamp / De-bottlenecking Phase-II, which is in
the process of execution. The intended De-bottlenecking schemes under Phase-II
will be in place by September 2009. The advantages of this Revamp are given
below:
The CDR Project has been installed under Clean Development Mechanism and
it shall reduce CO2 emission by 450 Metric Tonnes per Day.
The energy norm will improve to 5.500 Gcal / MT of Urea from the present
level of 5.610 Gcal / MT of Urea.
Production level will increase from both Units by about 2.0 Lakhs MT per
Annum.
Naphtha usage will be stopped, which will reduce the Subsidy burden of
the Government.
The additional Production will help to cover up the shortfall of Urea in
the Country, which otherwise, has to be imported at a huge cost.
It is worth noting that NFCL had executed another similar Revamp in the
year 2007-08, which helped to increase the Urea Production capacity by around
50,000 Metric Tonne per Annum. It was informed by NFCL sources that another
Revamp, called Phase-III is in the feasibility study stage, to further augment
the capacity of the Plants.

Clarifications from Nagarjuna Fertilizers and Chemicals Limited regarding
rumours for the benefit of shareholders and public at large.
KVK PRAGATHI RYTHU
SANMANOTSAVAM
HYDERABAD,
NOVEMBER 9, 2006
Nagarjuna Group is a dream brought into reality by Shri KVK Raju, a first
generation entrepreneur from Andhra Pradesh. Shri KVK Raju was a visionary with
firm belief in his mission to "serve society through industry". It is
this belief, which continues to be the guiding light of Nagarjuna Group that
pioneered several core sector enterprises like Fertilizers, Energy and
Petroleum.
Nagarjuna Fertilizers and Chemicals Limited (NFCL) the flagship company
of the Nagarjuna Group commissioned the first Gas based fertilizer plant in
South India at Kakinada in 1992 and currently has a capacity to produce 12 Lakh
MT of Urea per annum.
Nagarjuna entered the plant protection business in 1994 and within a
short span of time the company has grown to become one of the top five plant
protection companies in India, supplying plant protection technicals and
formulations to many Indian and International companies. Nagarjuna is
manufacturing 8 technicals and 15 formulations with a turnover of Rs 4000.000
Millions (FY06).
Nagarjuna Group started Micro irrigation business in collaboration with
Israeli companies. Nagarjuna is shouldering the responsibility in the Andhra
Pradesh Micro Irrigation Project (APMIP) towards delivering effective water
management solutions to the farmers of Andhra Pradesh. Nagarjuna is also the
first company to introduce the concept of water soluble fertilizers in India in
1995 through tie up with Haifa Chemicals, Israel and is the market leader in
India with sales of about 8000 Mt per annum.
As part of its mission, the group is actively involved in the Micro
nutrient segment by supplying high quality products like Mahazinc (Zinc
Monohydrate): 450 MT, Zeta (Zinc EDTA): 150 MT, Groth (Formula 4): 100 MT and
Borovin (Boron): 25 MT. Nagarjuna is also sharing the responsibility of
distributing Zinc Sulphate under the State Government's subsidy scheme to the
farming community.
Nagarjuna is currently supplying about 50% of the State's annual urea
requirement of 2 million tons. Nagarjuna has been nominated as the Lead
Fertilizer Supplier (LFS) by the Government of India in Andhra Pradesh, Orissa
and West Bengal as a coordinator between the Government and the Industry.
Nagarjuna currently markets about 1.9 million tons of urea (including imports).
Apart from the efforts of both State and Central Governments, the
fertilizer industry is also playing an important role in transferring
technology to the farmers. Nagarjuna has taken service to the farmer as a
mission since its inception in 1985 and has earned a strong brand image in
Andhra Pradesh and has since become a part of the farming community of the
state.
As a step towards providing a platform to facilitate technology transfer
to farmers KVK KRISHI VIGNANA KENDRAM (KVK) was set up at Kakinada in 1995. The
objective of the center is to transfer technology and impart knowledge on best
agricultural practices like Integrated Nutrition Management, Water Management,
Integrated Pest Management, Post-harvest Management, etc, to farmers, thereby
contributing to improving farm productivity. The centre has state-of-the art
training facilities and is headed by an experienced Agronomist with vast
technical and practical knowledge.
Since its' inception, the KVK centre has trained more than 48000 farmers
from about 416 villages covering all the districts of Andhra Pradesh. Nagarjuna
encourages the KVK trained farmers to act as a guide to his fellow farmers by
sharing their experiences through verbal communication and practice enabling
knowledge dissemination and improvement in farm productivity in a short span of
time.
The KVK centre organizes training programs both On-campus and
Off-campus. In On-campus programs, the selected progressive farmers are brought
to the centre in Kakinada, travel, accommodation and food is provided at the
centre for three days. These farmers are given training on the crop / subject
of their choice by senior scientists pooled from industry, institutions and
universities. The Off-campus programs are organized by arranging visits to the
farmer fields by the Scientists. Based on the observations / specimens, the Scientists
provide advise to farmers enabling them to take immediate preventive /
correction measures for their crops.
The company has undertaken several extension activities for the benefit
of the farming community. A wide range of technical crop films on paddy,
sugarcane, maize, cotton, chilli and benefits of Zinc usage in crops have been
developed over the past few years enabling the concept of "Seeing is
Believing". The films on Zinc, Sugarcane and Chilly have been adjudged for
awards by the Fertilizer Association of India consecutively for the past three
years. Programs like crop seminars, demonstrations, film shows, soil analysis
etc are extensively organized for transferring enabling technology to the
farmers. Tools like LCD projectors, Slide projectors, AV vans, flip charts,
crop literature etc are widely used for effective communication.
Nagarjuna is strongly committed to the well being of the farming
community of the state and will continue its efforts towards achieving this
objective.
NFCL is organizing KVK Pragathi Rythu Sanmanotsavam, to felicitate
farmers who were trained at KVK Krishi Vignana Kendram and who have played an
important role in improving farm productivity and knowledge sharing. The
programme will be held on Friday 10th November 2006 at 10 am in NFCL premises,
Kakinada, which would be graced by the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh,
Honourable Dr. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy and Honourable Ministers from the Centre
and the State, along with other distinguished public representatives and
officers.
